The German wolf packs, known as "Wolfgang," were strategic naval formations used by the German U-boat fleet during World War II. These groups of submarines would operate together to target Allied shipping, employing coordinated attacks to overwhelm convoy defenses. The tactic aimed to maximize the effectiveness of U-boat strikes against merchant vessels in the Atlantic, contributing significantly to the Battle of the Atlantic. The use of wolf packs proved both effective and devastating early in the war but was eventually countered by improved anti-submarine warfare tactics from the Allies.
